Updating Performance and Basic Entry Links
The links that are returned by the Yield Management System (YMS) will need to be updated by each supplier to ensure the correct tracking parameter is set, and that all of the required parameters are included to complete the link.
Basic API Calls
Yield Management returns incomplete entry links for Basic API calls because no demographic data has been provided by the supplier.
It is the responsibility of the supplier to:
- assign a tracking value to the
ssi
* parameter to replace the system default valueSUBID
- append the incomplete entry link with a
unique_user_id
and an hmac value
Supplier Sub ID (ssi)
The
ssi
parameter is used to track session ID, supplier sub ID, or some other tracking value.We don’t recommend passing the same values for ssi and unique_user_id. It helps in troubleshooting for a particular session of the user.
unique_user_id should be the unique user id, and should always be the same for each user, while 'ssi' should be the unique session id (or subid) to track individual transactions.
Performance API Calls
Yield Management returns entry links that contain a system default value of SUBID
for the supplier sub ID.
It is the responsibility of the supplier to:
- assign a tracking value to the
ssi
* parameter to replace the system default valueSUBID
Entry Links
All API entry links must contain a
unique_user_id
and an hmac value.
